Another easy Abahani win


Abahani confirmed their semifinal berth in the Kings Cup football tournament in Bhutan when the Dhaka giants recorded another comfortable 3-0 victory against Indian Army in their second match on Saturday.

The popular Sky Blues, who made a flying start to the tournament by inflicting a 4-1 defeat on Kang-won of South Korea, led the first-half 1-0 against the Indian soldiers as Abahani's guest striker Farhad found the net in the seventh minutes.

Young Mehedi Hasan Ujjal doubled it in the 59th minute and Saiful Islam Khokon sealed the match, scoring in the dying moments of the game.

Abahani will play their final and third group match against Nepalese national side on Octo- ber 5.
